This one is a 3tb Toshiba dwc130 Canvio brought to me because Windows Vista would not "see" it.
It seemed to have issues spinning up and loading the heads, so i checked the power brick which checked fine, next i pulled the drive and swapped it into one of the hotswap bays of my system and it worked fine.
The data was corrupted beyond all recognition so i went on to the drive bridge where i found two dry 220uF 16V CrapXon caps (pix before cap test).
Going into the S.M.A.R.T data i found the drive was ran over temp (63c) for 720 hours, all others are fine with an exception of the number of interface CRC errors.
